I believe it's more like a rear window defrost grid that runs under your wiper blades while they are in the park position. When you use remote start and probably front or rear defrost it turns it on. Not 100% on that, but should help some. Especially in the freezing rain states!!

That is exactly how it works.

What are they smoking? I have the 501 and the ap has no separate option for de-icing.
If they were to eliminate anything, get rid of that crap laminated glass they use. Nothing like mirages when the road isn’t hot. ?

Looks like a feature they should keep to me.

If you have the B&O stereo you do.

Never heard of them before, not really needed here in S. Louisiana.

b&o isn't a good test since it doesn't come on a supercab whether you have the package or not
